The senior influencer, who has over 22,000 followers on Instagram, earned plenty of fans while battling it out with 21 other women to win over Gerry Turner, 71, on the Golden Bachelor in 2023.

The retired realtor may have lost out to Theresa Nist, but still gets plenty of attention online, where she is inundated with compliments.

In a recent video that has over 16,000 views, Edith – who found her first gray hair as a teenager – shares a snap of herself from her 40s, and she’s barely aged a day.

She also revealed her biggest regret as a life lesson to other women.

“I was 40 and dying my hair for over twenty years!” read a text.

To the tune of Man! I Feel Like a Woman by Shania Twain, Edith shows off her trim figure while trying on a paisley-patterned dress.

As she sways her hair, turning to the camera, the text reads: “Now at 61, I regret dying my hair all those years.”

The senior bombshell then dances away.

Her clip has left fans drooling in the comments.

“You look hot – you go girl!” said fellow co-star Joan Vassos.

“That’s what you call class and grace,” Sonya added.

“Such a beauty,” followed by a love-heart-eyed emoji and two fires,” Lauren commented.

“She should’ve been the Golden Bachelorette button,” Martine said.

“You literally get more beautiful all the time!! You are such a positive aging role model!” Emily added.

“I love your hair either way! So thick and beautiful,” another fan commented.

“Stunning and breathtaking,” followed by four fire emojis, Carly added.

Edith, who is from Downey, California, previously revealed that she found her first white hair aged just 17.

She admitted to dying her hair for the first time at her prom in 1981, and then again every two weeks.

Eventually, she made the decision to stop and embrace her silver locks in August 2018, at the age of 55.

Edith has also gone viral in the past for her skin-brightening hack using aloe vera – which she grows herself – and lathering the gel on her skin each night before bed.

She follows up with a dollop of olive oil on the face, with avocado around the eye to maintain her youthful good looks.

While she didn't get the final rose, she did attend the televised wedding between Gerry Turner and Theresa Nist
